Moving on

Finally, at long last, I can tell you what I've been up to with finding a new home for this blog. I've created a new, community-based science blogging site, called Scientopia. With the help of many wonderful people, we're ready. We launched this morning. So to continue following GM/BM - along with the work of many other wonderful bloggers, like Scicurious, Grrlscientist, Mike Dunford, Dr. Skyskull, and lots of others, come on over to Scientopia, the new home of Good Math/Bad Math"/a>.

Many of the Scienceblog expatriates plus a few others have formed a new collective, Scientopia. It looks like a good bunch of people and a new and maybe better bottom-up approach to organizing a blog network — I'll be reading them and looking forward to their growth.

I just realized that I've been writing this blog for a whole year! I managed to miss the actual

So my decision is made. I'm closing up around here. I'm in the process of working out exactly where I'm going to go. With any luck, Seed will leave this blog here long enough for me to post an update with the new location. But I'm through with Seed and ScienceBlogs.

As my friend Pal wrote about, Seed Media Group, the corporate overlords of the ScienceBlogs network that this blog belongs to, have apparently decided that blog space in these parts is now up for sale to advertisers.
We've been advertiser supported since I joined up with SB. I've never minded…

As regular readers have no doubt noticed by now, posting on the blog
has been slow lately. I've been trying to come back up to speed, but so
